Google teams up with Samsung yet again, renames Nearby Share to Quick Share

Software giant Google and South Korean electronics maker Samsung have announced collaboration to bring their peer-to-peer content sharing platforms into a singular cross-Android solution called Quick Share. Essentially, the Google Nearby Share has been renamed to Quick Share, which has now become the default platform built-in option for peer-to-peer content sharing across all types of devices in the Android and Chromebook ecosystems. To mark the change, Google has also updated the logo. Quick Share will start rolling out to current Nearby Share enabled devices next month, said Google.
